The single worst thing about playing a sorc is that you are basically invisible for most of every fight. It’s moronic. You have no idea where you are going , what effect you are having and, while you are totally invisible, or ‘harnessing the power of the wind’ you are still physically vulnerable.... so you can be hit even if you’re supposed to be made out of air....
Half the time I can’t even see where I am, and when I can I can’t see any of the cues for procs or sets (try seeing when Briarheart is active when you’re using Hurricane for instance). I mean it’s a total crapshoot.
I swear 99% of the success of Xynode’s Easy Sorc build is that you can actually see the bloody thing in combat because of its glowey arms.... (although it’s a great build)
Try seeing the ‘cool’ new Bound Armaments knives when you’re in Hurricane mode.... No chance.2 -

These skills are making combat difficult for players to understand what their enemy is doing which makes no sense being none of these skills are supposed to be a stealth skill. When D-swing was still a thing I simply can't even see when someone is casting it to counter (by blocking it) or when a sorcs throwing a crystal frag to dodge it.
To me these buffs make no sense by turning the player translucent. It is irritating for the person using it because they can't see the character they worked hard to design and makes it frustrating for their opponent to use combat ques to react appropriately.
In essence I think it is unfair, non sense and should be addressed .
Does anyone else feel this way?
Oh hell no, I love these effects. Shuffle especially since my characters are vampires. It's another kind of mistform for me.
And it helps medium armor since it's got nothing else to defend with, at least it blocks your visuals.2 -

Disable translucent effect for oponents YES/NO
Disable translucent effect on you YES/NO
everyone happy?
I agree with this, but I would want an option for disabling all of the visual effects from buffs. My biggest gripe is with Ice Fortress (Warden), that crown is absolutely hideous.1 -

✭I am all up for this.
Dragonblood could be a heat aura around you, maybe like the new 7th Legion proc effect.
Hurricane only the storm around you and the magicka morph only the lightning.
Shuffle maybe a mist on your body. Since it doesnt offer passive dodge chance anymore.
These overtuned effects make it hard to see what your enemy is doing (esspecially in range with magsorc) and making it hard to counter certain attacks. Also destroys all the work you out in your Outfit....
